Dr. Christina J. Gonzalez
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdD, LMHC, NCC
Do you have or think you might have ADHD? Whether you are struggling with a recent diagnosis of ADHD and trying to make sense out of your life, have been dealing with ADHD for years, or are just wondering if you might have ADHD, we can work together to help you deal with the logistical aspects of learning to plan/organize your life better, manage your emotional symptoms and rejection sensitivity, heal or improve your relationships, and find the “gifts” of ADHD in your life. With extensive training and professional AND personal experience as a woman who discovered my own ADHD late in life, we can work together to help your life be one you live and where you find it easier to be accountable for the goals you want to achieve. This therapist is fluent in ADHD, neurodiversity, and things that certainly show up differently in “real” life than they might in a textbook! With over 20 years of licensed practice as a mental health counselor and work in Mexico, Japan, Germany, and the US in a wide variety of settings, let my quirky meet your quirky and we can work together to help you figure out how to live that life you have always been wanting to live while providing the emotional support you need as you develop the strategies that will help you be successful in your goals. My counseling style is warm and interactive and I strongly believe that ANYONE can make changes in their life. My passion is helping YOU create a life you love and relationships that nurture and support you.
It takes courage to take the steps to create a more fulfilling, happier life and to take the first steps towards making changes. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you!

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many people with ADHD have received and internalized the message that they are lazy or not living up to their potential; it is common for individuals with ADHD to be hard on themselves in an attempt to increase productivity and reliability. Yet, each failure reinforces the message that they are inadequate. Moreover, the nature of ADHD often makes it difficult to organize and soothe difficult thoughts and emotions, leaving one vulnerable to anxiety and depression.
